Abstract: This essay explores my personal experience with writing and the impact of plagiarism. Moving from the Ivory Coast to the U.S. created a language barrier and hindered my creativity. However, a key event led to a profound change in my approach, highlighting the value of academic integrity. This essay underscores the importance of ethical writing and the need for culturally sensitive teaching methods to aid students in navigating language barriers and creativity challenges.
